I’m starting to think Genndy might just be a hack

The game ending that is canon was good so he was right.
Is he making stories on the fly?
Genndy needs somebody to hold his hand and edit his scripts. He's clearly a genius but, yes, he has a tendency to fumble the endings of his stuff.
As someone who consumes disgusting amounts of media I feel like 90% of people frick up endings and honestly the last third of everything.
I've always thought if I had a series I'd write basically two season 1s, and save one to be the final season, so it ends on a fresh note when ideas hadn't yet been done and creativity was peak.
That also can creatively stifle I’d you. Characters develop a lot over the course of a show and by the end of may no longer make sense to finish things off the way you had planned.
Just like How I Met Your Mother! Everyone loved the ending of that, right?
I'm not gonna lie to you, the Return of the King and the ending of the Hobbit both piss me off, even in book form
pick an ending and end the fricker, don't keep faking out and one more thinging it, trust the audience to accept the end of the story
they'll walk if I tell them to
The Scouring of the Shire is kino, though.
At least he had the sense to cut the "Sam's kids ask dad to tell them stories before they head out on a trip to Aragorn's royal lakehouse north of the Shire" epilogue.
It's weird, right? Again and again, people think of a cool concept, start it well enough, but then in the ending absolutely fricking ruin it.
It is so bad that I am often tempted to just waiting something out and see if it actually ends and ends well. Almost everything either doesn't complete, the quality changes so much that I lose interest, or they just botch the ending.
This is one of the upsides of just dumping a whole series onto a streaming service. We find out really quick if the first few episodes are just a fluke.
A lot of media, especially long running media, fumble their ending. Genndy didn't fumble SJ so much as he drop kicked it into a flaming landfill
03 clone wars is still his peak.
Both Primal and Unicorn Warriors are SHIT, this man lost his touch
>phone filename "GENNDY BAD" thread
gee, I wonder who could be behind this
Butch Hartmann??!
this board is really boring sometimes
no, but good for you for apparently not being chronically online
why do you think that
People that think primal S2 is bad are brianlets tbh
Comparing it to Jack S5 is total nonsense, Ashi drags the show down for the whole season
Genndy can't do serialization, period.
Samurai Jack S5 has a better gold-to-shit ratio than the rest of the series. Also episode four is good and combined with the first 3 make for a completely satisfying story arc for Ashi and Jack.
>Samurai Jack S5 has a better gold-to-shit ratio than the rest of the series.
...what? No way. Like half of S5 is bad, with a few dipping way more into "shit" than any episodes of the prior seasons. Episode...8 I think it was? Where it's just them going around to various people that summarize other, better episodes of Samurai Jack? Worst episode of the fricking series, easily, and S5 has it.
he is an animator and character designer, not a writter.
The moment people realise this things will stop being so fricking shit.
Test
it's "i just didn't have enough budget"
which is 300% real. Genndy directed a hit trilogy that became a franchise. That's what he can do with a proper budget.
Studios see "2D animation" and thin flash puppet rig shit and give him a budget according to that. You can't do jack shit with that, so he cuts corners everywhere and always ends up cutting the ending the worst.
Unicorn tho', he straight up dropped the series midways. You can pinpoint the exact chapter where he told the studio they are on their own. no idea what happened there.
If endings were easy, people wouldn't have such a hard time with them.
SJ was great y'all filtered
